Let me start by saying this little white charger has become my trusty sidekick. As someone who constantly forgets to charge their Apple Watch at night, having this portable charger in my work bag has been a game-changer.
The magnetic snap is satisfyingly strong - it clicks into place with that reassuring 'thunk' sound. I was worried about alignment issues after reading some reviews, but in my experience with Series 7, it self-aligns perfectly every time. No more waking up to a dead watch because it wasn't positioned right!
Charging speed surprised me. From 20% to 80% takes about an hour while I'm showering and getting ready in the morning. The full charge does take closer to 2.5 hours like advertised, but honestly that's fine for overnight charging.
The 3.3ft cable length is perfect - long enough to use comfortably at my desk where the outlet is behind furniture, but not so long that it gets tangled in my bag. The white coating has stayed clean despite being tossed in various bags and suitcases.
After two months of daily use (including a two-week vacation where this was my only charger), I can confidently say it performs just as well as the OEM charger that came with my watch. For the price difference, I'll definitely be buying another as backup!
